Jimmie Drummond

Drummond Projects

Jimmie Drummond is an architectural designer, educator, lighting artist, and founder of his eponymous practice. As his work touches upon many dimensions of architecture, he is compelled by socially-driven causes that spur innovation, accessibility, and social and design equity. He leads housing and experiential hospitality projects that champion African American identity, giving agency to the Black experience. Recently, he completed a 7,800-square-foot Afrofuturist concept restaurant and a multicultural co-working space, both in DC. His portfolio also includes community centers, affordable housing, mixed-use developments, and offices—all which aim to create infrastructure for culturally resilient and vibrant experiences in the North East.
